Calibration aerosol generator for use in e.g. research application, has container designed as tube and equipped with aerosol outlet for calibration aerosol and connected with lockable supply line for ambient air

摘要

The generator has two containers (1, 2) flowed with carrier gas i.e. inert gas, and a calibration aerosol substance e.g. airborne- particle. A saturator (3) is arranged in the container (1) adjacent to a heater (5) i.e. heating jacket, for receiving liquid containing the substance. The containers are connected with one another such that the carrier gas with the substance is supplied into the container (2) as steam jet through a nozzle (7). The container (2) is designed as tube, has an aerosol outlet (8) for the aerosol and is connected with a lockable supply line (11) for ambient air. An independent claim is also included for a method for production of a calibration aerosol by a calibration aerosol generator.
